Legal Hand Call-In Center serving Schenectady and Albany Counties

Our Volunteers are neighbors helping neighbors. Many of our Volunteers know someone who has been through similar situations to our Visitors, or have been through it themselves. Legal Hand is also engaged in community outreach and conducts workshops at community events on Know-Your-Rights sessions and establishes relationships with local community-based organizations.

At Legal Hand Call-in Centers, trained community Volunteers, who are not lawyers, provide free information, assistance, and referrals to help you resolve issues that affect your life, in areas like employment, housing, family, immigration, domestic violence, and public benefits and prevent problems from turning into legal cases. You can contact the Legal Hand Call-In Center by telephone, text, email, and chat. We can also meet with you by video. There are no eligibility requirements and all are welcome.
